Perfect Doll

Don’t ask me to take my life apart
And take a hammer to my heart,
I’m tired of being blamed for this
For something that I’m never going to miss.

You picked it up and threw it against a wall
All you wanted was a perfect doll,
One that’d always be there for you
And never walk away from you.

But now I’m tired of being blamed for this,
For something that I’m never going to miss
I don’t want to be controlled,
And I’m never going to fit inside your mold.

Because it’s not fair for my life to fall apart
Before this relationship even starts,
I want to be done, I want to be done,
Because I don’t want to be your ‘One’.

You crashed it and you broke it
Before I had a chance to quit
This blaming game you like to play
So why can you hear what I have to say?

Now I’m tired of always being blamed
For something that never had a name,
And I’ll never be your perfect doll
Because you broke this against a wall.
